אמעריקאנער שליח באשטעטיגט געהיימע סיריע מדינת ישראל זיצונגען.
WASHINGTON — U.S. Special Envoy to Syria Tom Barrack revealed that Syria and Israel have already held two meetings, despite official denials from Syrian state media.
Speaking in an interview on the Mario Nawfal Podcast, Barrack confirmed that the first meeting took place in Paris, where representatives from both nations reportedly agreed on several key points. He did not disclose specific details but emphasized the talks as a step toward reducing regional tensions.
Syrian media has repeatedly denied reports of backchannel diplomacy with Israel, insisting that no formal or informal negotiations are underway. Barrack’s statement, however, adds credibility to growing speculation of quiet diplomatic engagement between the two long-standing adversaries.
The disclosure comes at a sensitive time in the Middle East, where shifting alliances and conflicts have heightened the urgency for dialogue and potential reconciliation. Analysts caution that even small agreements could carry significant weight in reshaping the regional landscape.
